RE: Taking STEEM to the Mainstream Content Consumer - My Experience so Far
Paula,
We at the Steeminati have been having the same problem...
That's why we made our group....
We only bring in 1 person roughly a month and the hand holding besides a severe time problem to the one providing it. Is such a deterent that most people drop out without giving Steem a chance....
Easily getting up, figuring things out on your on yourself and inviting environment are so important. Right now it is zealots...but early adoption will not get wide acceptance unless we can fix these things... other social media platforms do not have these problems... and we are in competition with them as well as other blockchains... yes I know there is a difference betweem Steem, vs. SteemIt and other interfaces.
But to 99% of common users they don't give a hoot...
sigh......I dont know what to say.....
"But to 99% of common users they don't give a hoot.."
unfortunately with steem, unless they are content consumers only, they need to. Its such a complicated system for the average joe. and there I am trying to keep it simple, sign up and you can earn rewards like a loyalty card and redeem then against the price of my premium content. I don't want them to come near steemit, but I have to send them here to reset their passwords and keys when they get them.....
